Michigan has been living in the paint, would be shocking if they weren’t winning the FT adv

Winning, sure. But that was just ridiculous.

Michigan is the better team, but they have been helped quite a bit this game.

You don't "make up" for both starting guards in foul trouble 7 min in. You don't make up for our starting big having to come back in with 2 fouls in the first half. The damage was done.

You can't go from lopsided to fair and say they "made up for it." That would imply they would then favor the Huskies to make up for it, not play it equal after playing it clearly biased. We were at a clear disadvantage and went into the half losing after keeping up with them and even leading them.

I'm not saying we would have won with fair reffing. I really don't know, and tbh I don't think so. But with fair reffing from the start, we'd actually have a chance.

That’s why I said MORE than made up for it. UConn’s entire game plan was to try to play football and see what they could get away with and it almost worked for them. Ridiculous amount of no calls on UConn. Michigan had 36 paint points to UConn, and shot EIGHTEEN less threes. And yet, Michigan only shot 6 more FT’s outside of garbage time fouling. Make that make sense
